They Might Be Giants women and men

Select language to translate this lyric

When the ship runs out of ocean
And the vessel runs aground
Land's where we know the boat is found
Now there's nothing unexpected
'Bout the water giving out
Land's not a word we have to shout
But there's something beside the shoreline
Moving across the beachhead
Coming up from the shipwreck
Making as if to say
Women and men
Women and men
Women and men
Women and men
(Women and men)
Bringing with them messages of love
And everywhere they go love will grow
(Women and men)
When you see the faces of the women
And the men you too will know
Women and men, they cross the ocean
And now begin to pour out from the boat and up the shore
Two by two they enter the jungle and soon they number more
Three by three as well as four by four
Soon the stream of people gets wider
Then it becomes a river
River becomes an ocean
Carrying ships that bear
Women and men
Women and men
Women and men
Women and men
